Inbuilt screen recorder won’t record full screen for certain apps

I’ve been trying to record a game with the iOS screen recorder, however it always only record a corner of the screen. When I try it with other apps as well as the home screen it works perfectly fine. What is the problem here?

Hello Fermatt,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you're having some issues capturing a screen recording when using a certain app.


Are any of the other apps you've tested gaming apps? If this issue occurs in only gaming apps, we recommend going to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Content Restrictions, then make sure that screen recording is allowed in the Game Center section.


If this happens only with a particular gaming app, we recommend troubleshooting this app specifically. Check out If an app unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open for details.


Thanks!
